What causes hot water breakdowns?

If you’re experiencing a hot water breakdown, there are many things that could be wrong. Your plumbing system is an intricate network of pipes, fittings and valves that work together to deliver hot water to your home. If any part of this system fails suddenly or breaks down over time, it can cause a major disruption in your life.

Here are some common causes for hot water breakdowns:

• Faulty pipes – Pipes may be damaged by freezing temperatures or corrosion from minerals in the area’s groundwater supply (think hard water).
• Faulty water heater – If the pilot light goes out on your tankless model or if sediment builds up inside the tank itself (known as sedimentation), then it won’t produce enough heat to keep up with demand from all those showers taken on cold winter mornings!
• Faulty thermostat – A malfunctioning temperature setting could lead to scalding temperatures when someone turns on their faucet expecting only lukewarm water but instead gets scalded by steaming hot tap water flowing out at full blast!
• Leaking gas pipe/leaking electrical wire/leaking roof etc.

What can you do to prevent hot water breakdowns?

• Regularly check your hot water system.
• Keep the hot water system clean.
• Keep the hot water system well maintained by having it serviced annually or semi-annually, depending on how much use it gets in your home or business and whether you have hard water (which requires more frequent servicing).

A professional plumber will be able to inspect all parts of your hot water heater, including its heating elements, insulation, valves and controls–and they may be able to spot problems before they become serious enough to cause a breakdown in service. The technician might even recommend upgrading some components if they’re older than 10 years old (or 15 years old for electric models).
